Seaside Rockery

Seaside Rockery: Mykonos

Part of an exclusive complex of luxury villas, this pristine home sits on the quiet Mykonos south coast. It’s a five-minute drive to the serene shores of Psarou Beach and a ten-minute drive sees you at the buzzing cocktails bars by the water in lively Mykonos Town.

Return to your peaceful retreat to unwind on double day beds by the poolside, or shaded in the outdoor lounge beneath the pergola. Outdoor dining can be found up the stone steps, on the first-floor terrace looking out over the Aegean Sea before you. The interior reflects Cycladian tradition, with crisp white walls keeping things naturally cool and a rustic feature fireplace in the living room. Stark minimalism makes a feature of the wooden ceilings, and we love the duck-egg blue kitchen that adds a pop of colour.

From the villa, you’ve got direct access to the sea from a rocky beach, perfect for swimming and if you want to arrive in style, there’s a helipad on the complex or your own private jetty into the sea.
